It's awesome to see how many people have been inspired to train their rats by Shadow - for anyone looking for tips on how to train some of these tricks I'm going to link a video I made featuring Shadow and several of my other rats that shows the step by step bits of teaching 10 tricks: ua-cam.com/video/MRh4weM19qc/v-deo.html Good luck and happy training!
I miss rats so much. I want to thank you for widening the view of rsts. I do socialize fosters for my local Humae society. So you videos help them as well
I've started training and I didn't even realize how smart my rats were! They pick up tricks faster than I thought they would. They seem happier too. I think learning makes them happy
Such smart animals, like dogs. We need to petition to ban Cruel Glue Traps, Posion bait in favor of catch release or birth control and staying cleaner. Also stop needless animal testing as cosmetics on them or bunnies
It's been exactly one month and a day since Shadow passed away. This is a video I was meaning to make a while before she passed, as it chronicles my favorite tricks that we worked on together.
Shadow The Rat I love you so much yours so nice to the rats by the way I have had to mice 🐭 for 6 months to 1 year now what would be a easy trick to teach them😍
It is really painful that such beautiful, smart animals have such a short time on earth. I would have said: Shadow for president! She was definitely smarter than some politicians ...
I like how his brain is the size of an arduino but like 100 times more powerful and capable of unsupervised learning. Mother nature is the best engineer.
Hansen Welder..there was a movie some years ago called Willard about a bunch of criminal rats. I think they were trained for revenge not bank robbery. Of course the rats turned on the bad guy. Must have been interesting to train so many.
Your videos bring me so much joy. I couldn’t stop laughing when Shadow was painting! Thank you for sharing this part of your life with the world. RIP Shadow
@@sofiiamarusyn its an expression tho, a lot of ppl struggling with these problems make these jokes. I get what youre saying but humor helps cope sometimes yknow
Wow Shadow was an amazing rat and friend. I'm sorry she passed. But she made a wonderful impact on the world because of you and your love and patience training and taking care of her. Thanks so much for sharing videos of Shadow!
Shadow was adorable. The worst thing about rats is they don't live long enough. I love these brilliant pocket pets. Shadow was amazing, you could be a professional rat trainer!
What an amazing rat she was. You obviously spent many hours training Shadow. Rats are so very intelligent. Thanks for sharing this wonderful memory of her. 👵🏻🐾💕🇨🇦
Oh goodness it would be soooo cute if you were to have the whole mini brand set up like the store background, register like the whole works, then pack a "fake" mini brand order and then have shadow push the little buggy around like he's the one shopping..would be totally adorable! I never used to like rats until I got one for my daughter and he was the sweetest little thing and I fell in love, lol we now have 4 rats ❤
I love rats. I think they are one of the most misunderstood animals on the earth. But thanks to videos like this we see how smart and affectionate they are. Makes great pets, but need attention or will get depressed and lonely. Thank you for this video, its really a good one😊🎈💕
Those are some amazing tricks and I am so sorry Shadow isn't in your home anymore but she will always be in your heart and judging by all the time and effort you put into caring for her she had a wonderful life I am sure. Thank you for being a wonderful pet owner (from someone who works in a vet hospital) :)
What a beautiful smart rat. You have went over and beyond making a great friend as your pet. I'm sorry for the lost and know you were very patient and kind. She's in heaven and you got another wing " It's A Beautiful Life" 100% 💯 Thumbs up
Rats are very intelligent. You have a good bond with them. You get out of relationships what you put in. You obviously put in alot of time and love to get these results.😊
Wow what a joy! The patients that you, and your fluffy friends must have had with each other , and the time it it has taken for each trick, you must have spent a lot of time together! What comfort and blessing that was😇
There are my little funny and above all teachable little friends again. It's always great fun to watch them. These are such wonderful and intelligent animals... It's unbelievable what they can do. take good care of her Many greetings from Germany
I am certain that you worked with dear Shadow for awhile perfecting the tricks that was done. Amazing!! Sorry that little Shadow is gone! But you have the memories of these precious moments!!!
That was adorable. Thanks for sharing. Reminded me of a wild rat I brought home 43 years ago and my dad was first a bit shocked at first at the pretty large animal in my arms. It was a very early experience for me in my life with death as the rat was obviously poisoned. As I found him it looked very scared but calmed down in my company as I rubbed its head and back gently. My dad got a shoe box were we placed him in and I stayed with the rat until he eventually passed. Later we buried the rat in the box in a forest line by a park. That experience had a very profound, positive effect on my life as it shaped my general philosophy on life and dealing with other beings in general. I never forgot that rat in my life and do miss him very much.
@@raraavis3099 , правильнее, не ТОЛЬКО в уме крыски. Какой бы не был талантливый учитель, научить можно только того, кто способен учится. А так, я с вами согласен, конечно, конечно дрессировщик молодец.
@@weekbig вот тут вы не правы, крыс содержат минимум по две.(однополые).Им очень плохо без общения. Когда я этого ещё не знала, у меня жила одна крыска, так она всё время висела на краю клетки в попытках поймать меня. Грустное зрелище.Кстати, и одну крысу я не смогла научить таким трюкам. Дело во мне, видать я хреновый дрессировщик.))))
How painful! When your favorite "leaves"... And time will pass ... only the PAIN does not pass! And in the Loving Heart the Krysunka lives... And a piece of my Soul quietly gnaws...
This makes me miss my lovelies so much...have had 8 rats during like a 10 years span, but the last couple of years I haven’t had any since I had to move in with my dad and he’s allergic. But as soon as I get my own place I’ll get 3 of them. I miss it so much. Greetings from Sweden!
Wow. Shadow really was a unique, intelligent and special rat. I understand how hard it is to lose a rat so dear to your heart. My three rats just passed away within the last few months, all were pretty close to three years and one was a a little over three. I love your channel and enjoy watching your videos. You have great content that I can't seem to find anywhere else (like your fetch tutorial vid) I had an old channel that I did some trick videos with my late rats but I've decided to start fresh with a new channel, I think it's better that way. I will be getting a few new ratties soon, I can't stand to be ratless. Keep up the good work!
I'm so sorry about your ratties, it truly is so hard to see them go after only a few years with them. Its amazing how much you can bond with such a small creature in such a short amount of time. Shadow was the last of my first trio of rats, and she definitely inspired me to train them. She was a mischievous little rattie, but that's part of what made her so much fun to work with. One of my solaces is that she died of spontaneous natural causes that I couldn't control, and that she was content until the day she went. It's so hard for me to imagine being ratless right now, and I hope that time doesn't come anytime soon. Getting Cookie and Cream definitely helped me when I was grieving over Shadow, and they were more of a "surprise" purchase (someone posted an add for young rats on craigslist in my town, which is so rare that I had to jump on the chance). I hope you get the chance to get some ratties soon, they really are one of the best companions out there :)
Rats are very smart. We had over 30 of them, and they all knew their names (and came when we called them, just like a dog would). Also, there was a rat on America's Got Talent, and she got the Golden Buzzer from Simon. 🐁🐭
I'm so sorry for your loss. Shadow was incredible. So clever So cute. I'm laughing and crying. Once she learned how to take money from your purse, did you find and on line orders for ratty products lol? RIP sweet Shadow and thanks for the amazing videos.
Awww! I know I did not know Shadow..🙂 yet I loved watching her natural intellectual magical talent!🙏 BEAUTIFUL baby! I'm so sorry she's not with you.. but she is with all her friends in heaven. I truly believe you will reunite with her one day! Thank you for sharing her Fantabulous amazing talent! God Bless you and your little Shadow within her "New Life❣

I want a rat badly
Can you train hamsters? Probably not, they aren't as smart. However I can't get a rat because they are quite expensive.
Amazing what you do with these rats..Just wish they had a little longer life span
I just love the way she looks up to check for a reward after each penny in the "bank".
Умняшка
Just like a dog.
That’s exactly what I thought too.
Such smart animals, like dogs. We need to petition to ban Cruel Glue Traps, Posion bait in favor of catch release or birth control and staying cleaner. Also stop needless animal testing as cosmetics on them or bunnies
Shadow's real talent was her ability to bring us all together.
Dearest Giant Rat, Beautifully well said and I completely agree with this. Thank you for commenting. 😊 ❤️🕊💫🐾🌎🐾✨🕊❤️
Very true and a nice thought.
Yes, *Giant rat* . Lol
How tf did I reach here
Молодчина мышка!!!

Shadow The Rat I love you so much yours so nice to the rats by the way I have had to mice 🐭 for 6 months to 1 year now what would be a easy trick to teach them😍
Sorry 2
the video made me cry ._. watching him knowing that he wasn't here anymore
Spin, paw, or come would be some of the best first tricks to train your mice. After that, I usually train either backup, agility, or fetch.
Aiv3rs same :’(
i will protect this sweet sweet baby forever she is so cute i love it
Sorry for your loss. What a precious little friend you had. R.I.P., Shadow.
Shadow was an unbelievably intelligent & well trained character. Very sweet. So sorry for your loss.

Lol that rat may be smarter then me XD
@@shawesomeshclll8112 exactly like donald trump!

You could train hundreds for a big bank robbery. Genius video :D

What a lovely rat - she must’ve had a really stimulating and fun life!
And years later, Shadow continues to amaze and inspire. 🖤🖤
RIP Shadow. Rats are so amazing. Thanks for sharing.
I don't know what was cuter, Shadow stacking cups or painting mountains
Shadow was a real star. Simply the best!
What a rat! So impressed by Shadow's intelligence.
2:40 the way she looks up after each coin ❤❤🧡💛💚💚💙
Wow, Shadow was really intelligent. May she rest in peace and reborn in Happy Realm.
All rats are very intelligent. Humans shamefully underestimate every animal but ourselves.
Your videos bring me so much joy. I couldn’t stop laughing when Shadow was painting! Thank you for sharing this part of your life with the world. RIP Shadow
I think this picture can cost 1000$ on eBay
Seeing her painting was darling.
Well done little buddy
I know that was the best one
Wow, i never knew dogs came in pocket size! #Pocketdogs
😂 lol
I call mine shoulder puppies.

Chihuahuas come in a similar size.
These are way too smart to be dogs.

Rats are so smart! I'm glad to see Shadow gets lots of enrichment through trick training.
never thought i would need to see a painting rat but here i am
4:03
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is what Bob Ross and Picaso's child would create; a true master piece.
Rest in peace, Shadow the Rat ;-;
a Rat-sterpiece......
I would get my rat to do a bunch of paintings and sell them. We would split the money 50/50.
Shadow you will truly be missed, as I am sure you are in rat heaven teaching your fellow brotheren some new tricks. Much love,- from Torrance CA.
This clever rat would've put more thought into answering UA-cam's advertising surveys than me. RIP Shadow.
What a lovely, smart and talented girl she was! Thank you for sharing!
Respect to hard Work of sweet Rat.
I hope, She's got a lot of goodies and cottony hammock in pet heaven.
I love rats. I think they are one of the most misunderstood animals on the earth. But thanks to videos like this we see how smart and affectionate they are. Makes great pets, but need attention or will get depressed and lonely. Thank you for this video, its really a good one😊🎈💕
1. put money in the piggy bank
2. fetch money from purse
3. take money from the bank
that's the only logical progression for Shadow's training
Wow, just so eager to please, so smart. Thanks for sharing and sorry for your loss...
Those are some amazing tricks and I am so sorry Shadow isn't in your home anymore but she will always be in your heart and judging by all the time and effort you put into caring for her she had a wonderful life I am sure.
